flexi Giant L Tape 8 m black/neon yellow, retractable leash for dogs up to 50 kg

Great quality and very easy to use and comfortable in hand with good price to match. Like the strength and 8 metre lead which is bright and easy to see in the dark. No tangling and good lock

Great lead. Despite many people thinking retractable leads are the work of the devil, my opinion is they are great if used sensibly. Gives the dog a good amount of freedom of movement, but you still have some control over them. I would only use this lead in relatively quiet open spaces, not for walking in the street. Tape is better than a thin cord. Less chance of friction burns. I always use a safety wrist strap with this lead, so that if the lead was suddenly yanked out of your hand (if dog chases squirrel for instance), you do not drop the lead and lose control of the dog. This lead is robust, and does the job well. Also I use a couple of bungee extensions in addition to the Flexi lead. they are much better to grab if you need close control of the dog. Grabbing the tape itself should be avoided. In an ideal world dogs would not be on leads, but we don't live in in an ideal world. For me this lead is as good as you are going to get in terms of a compromise between freedom and control. I like the neon colour of the tape as it can be seen from some distance by other dog walkers.

Recently purchased its a good strong built lead its got a excellent break system on it & a lock on the trigger it doesn’t jam at all, i was worried it was going to be uncomfortable & heavy in the hand but its great.. got to keep my eye on the puppy because they all like to chew, the tape feels strong but its neon yellow and i do wipe it down if he’s accidentally rolled over near mud its not chew resistance thou! Its all made well.

After 30yrs of looking after Labradors who walk steadily alongside you after their 22 hr daily snooze, so you can imagine the contrast we faced when taking on a Cocker X Spaniel. Full of life, never seems to be still, zig zags across you when out walking, and probably just out right bonkers. So after struggling with a standard lead we opted for an extendable lead. We’ve had Flexi Leads before and appreciated their value for money, quality and strength, so the 8m medium Giant Flexi was our choice. It really is 8m, has a good spring recoil and made with the colour fluorescent webbing…However 2 things let it down! The stop button can be tricky to apply and the dog clasp is too small and fiddly when trying to attach to the harness, especially when you have a wriggling dog. Apart from that it does the job.

Great robust lead that never tangles and is still quite long, can be a bit heavy and noisy but it’s great

Like most people I spend time reading reviews before purchasing but have never left a review, but I have decided to leave one for the Flexi Neon retractable dog lead because there were a few things I was not aware of before purchasing the lead and had I know I would have bought it sooner, instead of spending so much time looking at other retractable leads. First off I have a Husky, so I needed a lead strong enough to withstand the pulling power of a husky that will recoil quick enough to avoid legs getting tangled. - This lead is brilliant. it's well made and long enough to let my dog run about as we walk and lets me keep control when needed. It's really well made and good quality. A couple of thing I was not aware of from the description was that the lead comes with a safety loop that can attach to the handle of the lead with the other end around your wrist. I have uploaded a photo of me using it as I can't see mention of it in the description and we were actually looking for this feature because on a previous lead my dog pulled the lead out of my wife's hand and ran off - making her reluctant to use a lead like this when walking near roads. So seeing this in the pack with the lead was fantastic and a total bonus to us. Now both my son and wife can walk the dog without worrying about the lead being pulled from their hand. It will also be useful when wearing gloves are with cold hands. I don't know why they don't make this clearer with the product. It isn't even mentioned anywhere in the instructions. The second point I wasn't clear about until I saw the lead it that the coiled lead is open in the handle and is not encased by the body of the handle. I could see the yellow neon stripe in the photo but assumed it was a sticker on the casing not the actual lead. To me this is a huge plus because having a husky, hair gets everywhere and inevitably some gets on the lead which feeds back into case when it retracts. I'm sure this is what stopped the previous retractable lead we had from retracting quickly like it had done when we first had it. With the spool open it's easy to quickly clean it and clear any hair that would be out of sight and reach in other types of leads. Lastly the neon yellow colour. It says it can help on dark nights - maybe a little, bit but it's not reflective so not sure if it helps. Where it is of a huge benefit is it's clearly seen across a park so where before with my black lead other dog owners further away were not sure with my dog 8m ahead of me if he was on a lead, it's now clear that he is as the yellow is easily seen. It also stops the problem I've had before with cyclist trying to ride in between us only to see the lead at the last minute. Now instead of approaching us at top speed they actually slow down early because they can see the lead. I've saw a lot of reviews saying the dog loves the lead and it's great - I don't know if my dog loves the lead, I'm sure he'd prefer not to be on one, but this lead is an excellent compromise for me wanting him on one and him wanting to run about. So this is my first review because I actually think the lead it that good it's worth coming back to write about it.

Brilliant Dog lead, best ever and over the years i have had a few. Comfy carrying position, strong and not that heavy and great value

Really good sturdy lead for walking my German shepherd! I'm not afraid it's going to break with him and it doesn't get tangled. Reflective too but I don't usually use it at night. Good length to still have control when walking. My dog has a really high prey drive so this gives him freedom whilst staying safe.

Happy with purchase.very durable.Easy to handle.

Great as expected. Helps with my dogs pulling as it is a heavier duty lead.

A simple vista y primeras sensaciones es un producto de muy buena calidad, robusto y resistente. Tengo 2 Malinois, que son un manojo de energía estos perros, con mucha fuerza y la correa aguanta sin ningún problema sus tirones. Buscaba una correa así dado que no cualquier correa hecha en china iba a durar con perros de estas características, esta es hecha en Alemania. Y esta correa tiene pinta de que me va a durar mucho tiempo, y los perros son súper felices ahora que tienen más soltura para sprintar un poco sin que yo pierda el control de ellos, ya que antes llevaba una correa de metro y medio. La recomiendo 100% si la necesitas para perro grande. Es un poco pesada, pero al rato ya no te enteras, y es muy lógico su peso dado lo robusta que es. La cinta verde fosforito es un detalle, no es reflectante pero canta ya por si sola con ese color.. el sistema de bloqueo tambie es muy cómodo de usar y por el tacto se nota que se bloquea por un sistema de dientes grandes, no pequeños que puedan romperse fácilmente. Lo dicho, el precio que tiene vale la pena pagarlo cuándo ves el producto. Ahora sólo queda ver la durabilidad.

Ottimo prodotto. Forse un pò pesante ma certamente robusto e adatto a cani energici. Sicuramente consigliato

Lead does not retract anymore after very light use. Poor quality
